This beautiful salmon pink silk slip was part of a silk treasury that was passed down to a friend from an aunt who obviously loved being a woman. It was then passed on to me because I love beautiful vintage clothing. It is so soft on my skin and when I wear it, I do feel more womanly.

I love to wear pearls with lovely silk slips and lingerie.

The luminescence of the silk with the pearls

play off each other beautifully on a woman's skin.

A slip can make a woman feel sexy when she sleeps in it or

it can serve a purpose when it is worn under a sheer or clingy dress.

Nothing is more lovely then the contrast of the lace on the silk or satin

of the slip. In the 50's, many of the slips were made of sheer nylon

that was buttery soft.

Today, they are made with lycra.

Where to find a beautiful vintage slip?

The names to look for are Vanity Fair, Van Paalte, Barbizon,
